Happy birthday, Kamala Harris — the VP candidate is 56

Happy birthday to Kamala Harris, who turned 56 exactly two weeks before Election Day. Wonder what she wished for?

The Oakland, Cali. native’s twitter feed asked Americans to send the senator a birthday greeting on her big day and many admirers did.

“Happy birthday Madam Vice President!” tweeted supporter Chidi Nwatu. “The most Swagalicious and coolest VP ever!”

Several fans called her a “queen” and one well-wisher photographed herself wearing Converse All-Star sneakers like the ones Harris wears. A supporter who goes by Whitney wished a “Happy birthday to a bad-ass, down to earth queen!”

She also thanked Harris “for bringing joy, kindness and normalcy back into our lives during this insane year.”

Her tweet included video of Harris singing and dancing under an umbrella during a storm.

Patriot Kramer wasn’t happy that Harris' big day rained on his parade.

“Bummer, I have the same birthday as a socialist leader who’s trying to take over America,” that Twitter user wrote, along with a sad face image.

On Nov. 3, Harris will find out if she gets to have her cake and eat it too. Polls indicate that she and presidential candidate Joe Biden are holding a steady nine-point lead over the Republican ticket of President Trump and Mike Pence, which shows no sign of slowing down in the homestretch. President Trump is campaigning in Pennsylvania Tuesday while Biden is laying low while preparing for Thursday night’s presidential debate. The wannabe 46th president did find time to wish his running mate a happy birthday and make plans for her 57th.

“Next year, let’s celebrate with some ice cream at the White House,” Biden tweeted.

Biden will celebrate his 78th birthday next month. President Trump, 74, and Vice President Pence, 61, celebrated their birthdays in June.
